“We all have subconscious dynamics playing within us, and the fears and misconceptions that arise from these dynamics deeply affect our conscious state of mind. These thoughts and feelings are there for us to uncover, but it takes tremendous work to bring them to the surface for healing. That is, it takes tremendous work unless your mind is quiet enough, still enough, to recognize a sign when it is receiving one. Your subconscious is always sending you messages, clues to help you unravel the mystery of who you are; but we rarely recognize these signs through the cluttered distractions and compulsive behavior of modern society.
An important step in achieving a more intimate relationship with the self is allowing for more quiet time in your life. In other words, less TV/movies, fewer trips to the mail, fewer trips to the bar or club, more meditation, or at least, more time simply sitting quietly. For many of us, trying to pay attention to the communications coming from within is like trying to hear a whisper in the middle of a rock concert – not working! Do anything you can think of to help quiet your environment.”
Sara Chetkin, in “The Healing Curve”
